Comment(by Martin Pyle <MartinNvPyle@…>):

 Thanks for the info Boris. Yes that seems to be highly relevant.
 I now see that lack of {{{ myFunctorFoo == myFunctorFoo }}} support (in
 the above example) follows from type-erasure, plus no compile time type-
 trait for has operator==(T,T).

 On the off chance; I don't suppose you can make sense of the (to me)
 cryptic statement at the end of that FAQ item: "The Signals library has a
 way around this" ?
